The remainder of this article contains lore created collaboratively by the Blaseball community.

Background

Emblem Warhorse describes many things: a bar, a band, a Blaseball player, but most importantly, a community. The Emblem Warhorse is a dive bar in Seattle, and Emblem Warhorse is a collective of people who have at some point in their life found refuge within its walls, becoming Patrons of The Emblem Warhorse. Patrons can be found doing a variety of activities, including (but certainly not limited to) celebrating after a minor league blaseball game, chatting with fellow motorcycle gang members, performing in the group's band (titled Emblem Warhorse), performing at the bar's drag shows under the moniker Emblem Warhorse, or simply enjoying the atmosphere of the bar. A watchful reader may have noticed that some of these activities involve being named Emblem Warhorse; this stems from the bar’s motto: “If you’re here, you’re Emblem Warhorse.” Upon entering the bar, one's name becomes Emblem Warhorse for the duration of one's stay. All are Emblem Warhorse. All is Emblem Warhorse.

Warhorses who frequent the bar often note having never seen the bar before finding it, despite it being located across the street from the Queen Anne Dicks Drive In. Some speculate the bar is only visible when one is truly prepared to find it. The exception to this rule is when the bar hosts events, though visitors who are not meant to become a Patron often find themselves shooed out the door by The Emblem Warhorse itself. Visitors have reported experiencing this phenomenon differently, some finding chairs feeling more uncomfortable, others noticing the water tasting off or the music being just a little too loud. Some have taken to challenging The Emblem Warhorse, ready to prove themselves worthy candidates of the Emblem Warhorse name. It is unclear at this point if any such challenges have been successful.

After the name Emblem Warhorse appeared on the Seattle Garages active roster, at least one Warhorse has been chosen to play in each Garages game. How a Warhorse is chosen for play on a given day is unclear, as Patrons have given conflicting reports. It is possible that there is no clear way of deciding play, or that it changes from day to day. Some cite a competitive game of dlarts, others claim they simply feel the compulsion to pick up the bat and head out the doors.

Qualifications of becoming an Emblem Warhorse

Of the players who take up the moniker Emblem Warhorse, only two things are consistent:

• They have at one point in time been considered a regular at The Emblem Warhorse, and have been deemed worthy.

• They are required to wear the Emblem, a design featuring an upside-down chess knight, somewhere on their person.

The bar has a strict no quadruped policy, though there have been known instances of quadruped Emblem Warhorses managing to get around this rule.

Patrons of the Emblem Warhorse

Many people and beings have come to take up the moniker of Emblem Warhorse throughout time, as deemed worthy by The Emblem Warhorse bar. Below is one such Warhorse.

Emblem "Mori" Warhorse

Emblem “Mori” Warhorse (ze/zir) is the ghost of a noble who died some centuries ago. For most of zir time after death ze was bound to a family relic. This relic would become a piece of a traveling museum exhibit until an incident in Seattle would unbind Mori from the relic, leaving zir lost and alone on the streets of the Emerald City.

It didn’t take much wandering for the Emblem Warhorse to share its location with Mori. Once inside, ze met many of the active patrons at the time as well as the bartender known as Madame W, who found something in the back that could be served to ghosts. As Mori spent more time in the bar, the people of the Emblem Warhorse would assist Mori both in reintegrating with the world and discovering zir own identity. Upon proving zirself to the Emblem Warhorse, Mori took the name in full and changed zir signet ring to one bearing the Emblem.

Ze ended up proving zirself to the bar by becoming a stylist for the bar’s drag shows. Centuries worth of fashion knowledge were applied in designing an outfit for one of the performers. It wasn’t perfect, but it was enough to impress the Emblem Warhorse and allow Mori to sharpen zir skills in further shows. Nowadays Mori will gladly apply zir love and expertise of fashion to assist anyone within the Emblem Warhorse where needed.

When not intending to apply zir craft at the Emblem Warhorse, Mori will often be seen dressed in a manner similar to how ze dressed while alive. If a new person is at the bar at this time, Mori will often mess with them by speaking in an antiquated manner right until the moment ze think ze can get the best reaction out of the person by saying something very modern and very informal. If the bar wants this person to leave, chances are they’ll be hit with Mori’s trick at just the right time to cause a spittake.

Mori’s preferred drink is an alternative to the bloody mary known as the “Memento Mari.” Two ingredients have been added to this drink, champagne and a second drink that according to the staff can only be safely ingested by the dead.
